back from beach, it was cold, I should have had a scarf and gloves
my little local beach was very changed, the recent strong winds and high tides tore up most of the big vegetation/bushes and washed them inland, sand was pushed into the grasslands ,
some local roads were covered in sand and small stones
I saw a big spiral shark egg
oh wow. I don't think I've ever seen a shark egg before!
that's such a cool egg!!!
Never seen anything like that before.
Thatβs cool.
I was just thinking about you and hoping you were ok, because my "hometown" FB page showed footage of water over the road because very high tide and people driving through. Love the π¦π₯
Thanks for thinking of me.
There was flooding all around me , luckily I'm on a high spot close to the railway station that never floods
aww π³
Me? Did you get the wrong person?
Yes. I meant to respond to Seagoon π sorry
Those shark eggs are so cool, they're like an alien egg in real life. I'm surprised I haven't seen something that used them for inspiration yet
I should have written it's about 20 cm long! I am not sure which species as there are a few like this.
